Next year's release of the Digital Extremes shooter is starting to come into clearer focus. With reboot sequel on the way in 2013, the Namco Bandai-published game will serve as a bridge between the two films. Zachary Quinto and Chris Pine will reprise their roles as Spock and Kirk for the game in a script by God of War writer Marianne Krawczyk.

Both Spock and Kirk will have their own unique play styles within the game's over-the-shoulder shooter gameplay against classic Star Trek villains, the lizard-like Gorn. The Gorn have decided to take over the galaxy, damn the photon torpedoes, and it's up to Kirk and Spock to take them down.
